Getting to OT:

OT's Address is:
5770 W Irlo Bronson Memorial Hwy,
Kissimmee FL, 34746

Easily Accessible from either I-4 or the FL Turnpike. It's also less than half an hour from Orlando Int'l (MCO) if anyone wants to fly in ;)

However, to make it easy for everyone to find, here's where the meet is within OT itself. Our space is the parking lot all the way at the end of the Old Town Complex, at the intersection of Skylark Drive and Holiday Trail.

You can get exact directions to that point here - Holiday Trail - Google Maps on google maps.

Here's the aerial view of the lot we have. I expect it to be full of lightnings that day!!

Where to stay:

Orlando has a near infinite amount of lodging options. If you're making a trip of it and taking the family to Disney or Universal, you may choose to stay somewhere else.

For those of us who are there just for the OT shenanigans, there's a few places right nearby which we have used in the past and most people enjoyed.

What to bring and expect:

I recommend wearing some sunscreen, depending on the weather that day, bring a couple folding chairs, plenty of water, and plenty of recreational beverages! We aren't allowed to cook out at Old Town, but we encourage everyone to try some food from the amusement park, and feel free to bring snacks and drinks to share if you are so inclined!
